Oklahoma Comic Arts Festival Exhibition
Presented in partnership with Oklahoma Comic Arts Foundation
August 28–September 21, 2025
Education Wing
Many people think of comics and graphic novels as contemporary art forms, but their roots are quite ancient. Pictorial storytelling was found in cave paintings, tapestries, and hieroglyphs—so whether you’re a reader, a creator, or both, you’re participating in one of the oldest art forms!
Comics and graphic novels are visual narratives, combining the principles of design with techniques of storytelling. Every page is designed and illustrated to guide the viewer through intriguing plots by using color, composition, compelling characters, and rich environments. This exhibit showcased local artists and invited guests.
